- SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS KEESLER AFB BASE OPERATING SUPPORT (BOS) A-76 COST STUDY, PICK-A-BASE. The information provided is the planned strategy at this time. The strategy for this acquisition may change prior to final RFP release. We are seeking qualified large and small businesses, 8(a) concerns, SDB contractors, historically underutilized businesses, women-owned businesses, and historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions under SIC Code 8744 (Size Standard $20 million) to participate in this Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-76 Cost Comparison study. The study will consist of looking at all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and services necessary to perform seventeen selected service functions, identified below, for the 81st Training Wing at Keesler AFB, MS. The A-76 will involve a performance-based, outcome-oriented source selection competition among offerors. AETC is considering setting aside for small business several of the functions, in which case a separate award would be made to a small business firm for these areas, with the remaining functions falling under a separate contract award. Two separate Government bids will be prepared, one representing the Big BOS areas and the second representing the Little BOS areas. If the results are to contract out, AETC will award two major contracts - one contract for Big BOS (full and open competition) and the other for Little BOS (100% Small Business Set-Aside). THIS COST STUDY WILL NOT RESULT IN A CONTRACT AWARD IF GOVERNMENT PERFORMANCE IS CONSIDERED MORE ADVANTAGEOUS. The Big BOS includes service areas 1 - 11 (listed below) and the Little BOS includes service areas 12-17. Please note that AETC has not yet made a decision as to whether the potential acquisitions will be set-aside and thus it reserves the right to determine the appropriate method of procuring the services based upon its analysis and evaluation of the responses to current market research.
